Pretty good read. I always talk about patterning my gun, but I just never make the time to do it. I always make a point to check my zero on rifles and pistol prior to hunting. YOu would think I would place the same emphasis on the shotgun as well.

Choke constriction is not the only variable to pattern density. Pellet count truly comes into play. Compare pellet counts between sizes. Then consider the original article on pellet size and penetration.

About Us

Founded in 1999, Michigan-Sportsman.com started as a collection of links to Michigan related sites, and a series of manually edited blogs. It was a marriage of my passions for the outdoors and the internet. In late 1999, we started our first message board. It was one of Michigan's first social networks. Many off-site friendships have formed with others who share the same interests in the outdoors through the site. Thanks for your patronage - Steve
